Customer Reviews
Very well done and engaging
Dr Brotemarkle does a fantastic job with this program exploring the history of Florida.
An essential podcast for every true Floridian.
As a lifelong Floridian and a history major, the Florida Frontiers podcast introduces the listener to fascinating tales into the stats’s history. While some of the topics could be considered general knowledge, the majority of the show features little-known episodes unique to Florida’s past, and both are presented with unique perspectives that entertain and educate the novice and historian alike. I look forward to each episode and the knowledge it promotes. Additionally, through this podcast, I have traveled to many unique historical sites in the state that I did not know existed or had not made a point to see. It’s a must for any individual who calls Florida their home.
